Recently reported in the Age, Monash Institute for Medical Engineering (MIME) researcher Stephen Wang in collaboration with Jenny Keating and Tony Goldschlager have created a potential solution to help people maintain good posture - "the Virtual Spine" project.

The project is being carried out in conjunction with Monash Health and Austin Health. The full story can be viewed via the MIME media page.
